Yes, Steve...it is a real cooker...who would have guessed with such a dreary 
title?

And...there are at least two takes of it with very different solo work...a 
hidden gem which can be had for little dough when you find it.

BTW it is WAY better than the 1950s Ellington version which is as unhappy as 
the song title might suggest.
